NBA Jam Announcer: “Heating Up!”

Posted on
The warming trend continues after another chilly morning this morning. Despite a slight chance of rain and freezing drizzle in the DC region tomorrow and a chance of light rain and snow on late on Saturday, conditions should stay mainly dry. Heading into next week temperatures will stay warm early before another cold shot brings below normal temperatures back into the region. The concern for ice jam flooding continues in Oil City, especially as highs hold above freezing through early next week.
